Ask Frank...

It's his pizza.

I'm in no rush. I can wait for when you're around.

I didn't know what you needed us to cross our fingers for.  I thought you were going to put a hit out on me so you could get out of getting me a pizza.

Well that was obvious that it was a manifold. It's like calling it a piece of aluminum and saying you knew what it was.

I'll share my pie w ith you. But this is in no way an admittance that you were correct or that you guessed corredtly first.

Well, it didn't work I guess :-\

I had quoted some work, a lot of it and was told we were getting three of the part numbers I quoted.

It would have doubled to tripled my business.

Now the guy won't even return a make the beast with two backsing phone call >:(

I thought of that. Possible he spoke too soon and regrets it.

Still though. He should sack up and tell me what's going on.

Sorry you missed out ML  :-\

Even if he did shoot off a premature procurement proclamation....  least he can do is talk to you about it..... but then you know he'll probably just spin you some yarn anyway.

Especially if this..

What she said.


Keep in mind,  business is still moving very slowly.  Don't assume anything.  They may have not made a decision.   

If they decided to work with someone else,  let them know you're still interested in working with them.

Wait for a call.
